Yes it is. Both games in thread header are on sale for $39.99 at SoCal Fry's actually.

Go consume.

Oh....NOW I'M PISSED!!! I was at the Fry's in City of Industry yesterday to pick up Metroid Prime 2 for $39.99, after Wario64 made that other thread. The game was marked as $49.99 with no sale price listed anywhere, so I tracked down a clerk and asked him if it was indeed on sale. He of course was clueless, but said if I saw it in the ad, then that price should be valid. So I get to the checkout and the girl rings it up as $49.99. I told her that was the wrong price, and informed her of the deal in the ad. Not having an ad immediately handy, she went to check on it. A whole ten or fifteen minutes later, she comes back and tells me that it's not on sale, and the price was in fact $49.99. I was understandably annoyed, but I didn't take it out on her. I politely asked if I could see a copy of their ad, and she directed me to the front door, where it was posted. Sure enough, Metroid was not in the ad. :( Accepting defeat, I left peacefully. Fry's is lucky that they've given me so many good deals in the past, or I might of had to firebomb their ass. :D But I didn't really blame them. I figured that Wario had probably posted Bay Area deals without specifying that that was what they were for, and that I in my haste to take advantage of the deal, didn't clarify that it was also good for SoCal. I had put it behind me, until now.

Tell me GAF, did I get hosed?

After I left Fry's I went directly to Best Buy and picked up MP2: Echoes, at full price, minus $30 worth of reward zone certificates and gift cards. So I still made out okay, but now I need to go about price matching Metroid to get my $10 back. The ad image in the link is probably to small, and Best Buy might not honor it if it is illegable. Does anyone have a larger image that I could print out? Thanks for the help guys.

This ad is from the OCRegister (ocregister.com). Aren't the ads for OC and LA the same? Get your hands on an Orange County Register if you can and price match MP2.
 
Yeah that is big enough, but I'm not sure it will work. Best Buy has given me crap before when they couldn't see a date on the ad, or if the whole ad wasn't visable. I'm pretty sure that the OC and LA ads are the same. Maybe someone with the actual ad can scan it and post it here like they sometimes do. Defensor maybe? :) I really don't want to waste a trip and get denied by customer service.
 
This is today's Fry's ad in the LA times, no sign of Metroid or Baten Kaitos. :( I still can't find a good ad for yesterday's deals.

On the link that Wario gave, if you click on individual items on the ad, it will zoom in on that portion of the image...

Thanks, but I already knew that.
